Alright went on a trip. Rode a bus. Thought of it on the way back. Flames as you know are always welcome and lemme make one thing clear to everyone... My poems have no specific rhyming pattern because remember I don't care! Well enjoy and I gotta go study for exams! YIPE!

Bus Ride

Riding a bus to who knows where

As if I really care

Sitting down and dozing off

The old lady across from me has got a bad cough

If she died tonight

Would she go without a fight?

Or would she struggle to survive

Or just take the final dive

Down below

Or to heaven aglow

Two guys, three seats back

Are sniffing what looks like crack

Probably getting high

As cars roll by

Little kids keep looking through the windows

Waving and smiling in their cleans shirts and hair bows

I could care less

I got myself into this mess

With no one to turn to

I just made myself anew

Drowned out useless emotions

That causes all sorts of commotions

I'd cry in front of people

I let my heart out by a steeple

I don't do that anymore

I go throuogh life in bore

Bottling up emotions is my new job

Hiding them from others like a teacher from a doorknob

Before a big test

When I used to try my best

Then I figured that didn't matter either

So I now do neither

Prevent or try

No use to cry

Over little things like that

A stray dog or cat

Emotions are trouble

That can only double

Then I look back at the people in the bus

I little kid's making a fuss

With what looks like a teenager

Or maybe babysitter or a stranger

I see the girl pick her up

And give her a juice cup

She says, "Did mommy make that better?"

And I think what happened to her

She's pretty and smart

Beside her I can see her Pre-Cal chart

Did she make a bad decision?

Or have a simple ambition

To not go far

To throw away her life for a hot guy in a car

I lean back in my seat

The bus stops at another street

Two girls walk in

Who look like they've done a dirty sin

Clothes torn to shreds

Look like they just got out of bed

They sit up front near the driver

I wander if they're just divers

They took the plunge into the unknown

And came up just bones

That's all that was left

After the sharks theft

Their honor and lives

Worse than killing by knives

Torture from the inside out

Did they know what it was about?

Were they just having fun?

Or were they just getting out of the protection of the Son

The bus stops and they get off

As does the old lady with the cough

Trembling down the aisle

As if she had just run a mile

I feel sorry for her but don't show

Emotions are nothing but snow

A good thing at first

Until it gets out of control in a burst

Of speed and force

Cutting you off course

From the things and people you love

And God up above

But wait

He always knows where you are without any bait

Finally my bottle springs a leak

Causing me to sink

Into my chair

I realize I really do care

I pull the handle on the bus hard

Causing my ribs to be jarred

I run out the door

Down the blocks by the shore

Getting dark

I see a shark

I dreaming I think

There isnow brink

Of ocean in my town

And suddenly I'm down

On the ground

And all around

Arms pull at me

Asking me if I can see

And suddenly everything is all clear

As the people that are near

I want to hug every one of them

But inside I condemn

And run home

To a dome

Of love and caring

I feel daring

I run and find my mum

Smelly like some kind of bum

From the bus ride

Emotions I can no longer hide

I hug her and run to my room

And await the doom

That emotion will bring

But they never come and I want to sing

I had it all wrong

It doesn't matter how long

You hide

You'll always show your true side

So don't wait and longer, friends

Go out and make amends

To the sick and the poor

The good food and clean floor

Be thankful for what you got

Because others have not

Anything to love or care

So be aware

Of the things around you

Cause I never knew

But now I do

So go out and make anew!
